The Wasps were worthy winners and shocked the home side when they won a fifth-minute penalty.

A clipped ball over the defence found Robert Thomson who was hauled down by Derek Soutar.

The Forfar keeper was lucky to escape without a booking but was punished as Ryan McCord slotted the spot-kick into the bottom corner.

Forfar replied just two minutes later when Danny Denholm reacted first to a Chris Templeman shot pushed on to the bar by Scott Bain and nodded the rebound home. Alloa regained the lead in the 21st minute with a move straight off the training ground.

Five Wasps lined up on the edge of the box and Forfar failed to pick up any of the runs to leave Jason Marr unmarked to power a header home.
